computer?

Run an anti-spyware program. Adaware and Spybot Search and
Destroy are both good. I run both of them every day.

Download the freeware application spybot - search and destroy from
www.safer-networking.org
Install the software then check for any updates. Once it is updated then run
the application and it will check for spy ware and any other nasties on your
pc. Don't be surprised if it comes up with a long list of items after the
first scan.

.

Usually it will be on your desktop or on your tool bar.
It will also pop up when ever you open ie. Check your
all program list to see if it is there.

Download Adaware from http://www.lavasoftusa.com/support/download/ and use
it to remove parasites.
